Fragile (3): Oh, that scene with Su Ho kissing some girl and then looking right into A Ra’s eyes (who doesn’t seem amused)… Are we setting up Korean Noorhelm? Because I’m not complaining. However, with my Skam knowledge, I thought Su Ho would be revealed to be Mi Na’s mystery boyfriend, but she seemed very excited to see him kissing that girl, so that doesn’t really work. So, who’s the mystery boyfriend? I did see a theory of it being Do Ha, which would actually make sense. Do Ha has certainly set his sights on Ji Yu though. He certainly has a lot of game, and he kinda has this cool but mysterious personality, so I can’t blame people for falling for that, but I don’t trust him one bit though. This is gonna get very messy if Mi Na’s boyfriend is indeed Do Ha though, especially since it seems like she’s about to sleep with him. Speaking off things getting messy, Kang San saw Ji Yu having diner with Do Ha, so that should be interesting. Bring on the drama!
Gyeongseong Creature S1 (8-10) & S2 (1-7): S2 is a very enjoyable & action-packed ride, but the further I got into the season, the more it became clear that this season is really just repeating the same mistakes as S1. So much, basically everything, feels underdeveloped. With the ML, there’s a big story as to what happened between S1 & 2. Hope you weren’t expecting to see any of that, because instead we get amnesia! The FL starts off strong, but she completely fizzles out by the end. I liked how she called him out on the outdated “stay behind because a man needs to protect a woman” trope… except then she quickly gets depowered and the finale devolves into a “how will he save her” situation. Seung-jo is interesting… too bad most of the interesting things happen off-screen. So many things are told to us, and most of it is never shown (or properly explained for that matter). I don’t think the show ever fully succeeded at the “epic romance” angle either, but Park Seo-joon & Han So-hee are absolutely phenomenal here and carry the entire thing on their backs. Oh, and that after-credits scene? Is this really where they want to end the story? Or do they seriously want a third season? But why though?
What Comes After Love (1-2): Depression. That’s the answer. Anyway, let’s cry in advance, because I really don’t see this having a happy ending.
The Judge From Hell (1-2): I love Park Shin-hye here. It’s very enjoyable, but I can easily see this show going completely off the rails, and not in a good way. Hopefully that doesn’t happen.
No Gain No Love (9-10): I love how this shows remains crazy and hilarious despite the story getting more dramatic. Let’s see if this holds for next week though, because episode 10 basically left both couples in shambles.
Love Next Door (11-12): Since everything is a fake-out, what’s the next one gonna be? Pregnancy? Serial killer? Another disease?
Revenant (7-9): I’ve never wished…
